Nzira Magazine – Travel Zimbabwe

3 days ago

On the way back from Mana Pools we decided to stop and check out the lovely Kavinga Safari Camp – just 30 km off of the main Chirundu Road – what a delightful place with a very different, yet special, layout set high above a water hole teaming with all sorts of wildlife – a complete opposite to what we had just witnessed in Mana Pools a few days ago. Kavinga is just 7km (as the crow flies) from the well-known Chitake Springs

Kavinga has 7 very private, spacious lodges overlooking a large expanse of water constantly kept full by water originating from a nearby well. There are literally hundreds of Elephant in the area at this time of the year taking seemingly polite turns to wander down for their daily splash and drink – making for some wonderful photographic opportunities. A “Hide” has been built underneath the lodges right next to the water’s edge so that guests can sip on their drinks whilst viewing wildlife from (very safe) a couple of metres securely boxed in by a structure that looks like an old anthill

We spent just two glorious nights at Kavinga Safari Camp and during our stay saw 4 of the big five! – Elephant, Buffalo, Lion and a very special, young Leopard sipping from the water’s edge just after supper – what a treat.

The shareholders are all Zimbabwean and one of their objectives is to have an up-market resort that is affordable to us locals. Read more about it in our next Nzira Travel Zimbabwe Magazine.
